RNA干扰技术在哺乳动物中的应用 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
RNA干扰(RNAi)是生物界普遍存在的一种抵御外来基因和病毒感染的进化保守机制.RNAi是由双链RNA触发的转录后基因沉默机制,具有序列特异性,在哺乳动物细胞中,RNAi由21~23个核苷酸组成的双链RNA引发.小干扰RNA(siRNA)可以在体外合成或通过表达载体在哺乳动物细胞内合成.由于RNAi技术具有快速、简单和特异性强等特点,在基因功能研究、抗病毒治疗和抗肿瘤治疗等方面有广泛的应用前景. 相似文献

RNA interference (RNAi) plays an important biological role in regulation of gene expression of eukaryotes. In addition, RNAi
was shown to be an adaptive protective molecular immune mechanism against viral diseases. Antiviral RNAi initiates from generation
of short interfering RNAs used in the subsequent recognition and degradation of the viral RNA molecules. As a response to
protective reaction of plants, most of the viruses encode specific proteins able to counteract RNAi. This process is known
as RNAi suppression. Viral suppressors act on various stages of RNAi and have biochemical properties that enable viruses to
effectively counteract the protective system of plants. Modern molecular and biochemical investigations of a number of viral
suppressors have significantly expanded our understanding of the complexity of the nature of RNAi suppression as well as mechanisms
of interaction between viruses and plants. 相似文献

Anti-coxsackieviral efficacy of RNA interference is highly dependent on genomic target selection and emergence of escape mutants 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Enteroviral diseases are widespread and impose significant importance in medicine. Although the outcome of diseases that are associated with enteroviruses such as myocarditis, pancreatitis, hepatitis, or encephalomyelitis might be fatal, no specific antiviral therapy is yet available. We and others have shown that RNA interference (RNAi) effectively limits picornaviral replication and cytopathogenicity and improves survival in susceptible mice. However, little is known about the dependence of short interfering RNA (siRNA) efficacy on target region selection and emergence of viral escape mutants that may limit the effect of RNAi. The results of our study indicate that antiviral siRNA should be targeted preferentially to nonstructural protein coding regions because siRNA efficacy was consistently found to be superior compared to noncoding or structural protein coding regions. Further more, emergence of viral escape mutants that harbor single point mutations in the central part of the siRNA binding motif are the major factor that limits early therapeutic siRNA efficacy. The appearance of viral escape mutants can be sufficiently suppressed by combined administration of at least three distinct siRNA molecules. Therefore, genomic target selection and viral escape mutants are the most critical factors that limit early RNAi directed against enteroviral genomes. Both obstacles can be circumvented by appropriate target selection and combined siRNA administration. 相似文献

Efficient regulation of viral replication by siRNA in a non-human primate surrogate model for hepatitis C 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Yokota T Iijima S Kubodera T Ishii K Katakai Y Ageyama N Chen Y Lee YJ Unno T Nishina K Iwasaki Y Maki N Mizusawa H Akari H 《Biochemical and biophysical research communications》2007,361(2):294-300
RNA interference (RNAi) represents a new technology which could offer potential applications for the therapeutics of human diseases. RNAi-mediated therapy has recently been shown to be effective toward infectious diseases in in vitro and rodent models, however, it remains unclear whether RNAi therapy with systemic application could be effective in primates. In this study, we examined if RNAi therapy could be effective toward infectious diseases by using a non-human primate surrogate model for hepatitis C. Administration into marmosets of cationic liposome-encapsulated siRNA (CL-siRNA) for GB virus B (GBV-B), which is most closely related to hepatitis C virus, repressed GBV-B replication in a dose-dependent manner. Especially, 5 mg/kg of the CL-siRNA completely inhibited the viral replication. Since the serum interferons (IFNs) were induced by CL-siRNA in vivo, inhibition of viral regulation by anti-GBV-B CL-siRNA may include an antiviral effect of IFN. However, contribution of induced IFN may be partial, since the control CL-siRNA which induced a stronger IFN response than GBV-B CL-siRNA could only delay the viral replication. Our results suggest the feasibility of systemic administration of CL-siRNA as an antiviral strategy. 相似文献

Silencing gene expression through a process known as RNA interference (RNAi) has been known in the plant world for many years. In recent years, knowledge of the prevalence of RNAi and the mechanism of gene silencing through RNAi has started to unfold. It is now believed that RNAi serves in part as an innate response against invading viral pathogens and, indeed, counter silencing mechanisms aimed at neutralizing RNAi have been found in various viral pathogens. During the past few years, it has been demonstrated that RNAi, induced by specifically designed double-stranded RNA (dsRNA) molecules, can silence gene expression of human viral pathogens both in acute and chronic viral infections. Furthermore, it is now apparent that in in vitro and in some in vivo models, the prospects for this technology in developing therapeutic applications are robust. However, many key questions and obstacles in the translation of RNAi into a potential therapeutic platform still remain, including the specificity and longevity of the silencing effect, and, most importantly, the delivery of the dsRNA that induces the system. It is expected that for the specific examples in which the delivery issue could be circumvented or resolved, RNAi may hold promise for the development of gene-specific therapeutics. 相似文献
